Painted Paws

Posted on by

I’m assuming most of my fans know that I spend a lot of my free time with the famous trick ponies from Painting Pony. Minnow, Blitz, and Boomer are expert painters!

Well I bet they can’t paint something like this! Check out what I made….

I know I’m so talented right? I bet my artworks sell for more money than Picasso!

Alright fine. Mom says it’s not nice to fib. I guess I gotta come clean. My painting experience looked more like this:

"But mom...Cricket the farm cat keeps calling me to come outside and play..."

"I want to paint.....but I also want to hunt groundhogs"

"sorry mom, I gotta peace out! I'm gonna leave the painting for the experts this time!"

Yeah I know, you can say it, I have no will power and I am easily swayed by peer pressure. I can’t be perfect all the time! Perhaps I will pick up my paintbrush another day, but for now I’m going to leave the painting to the ponies.

Rub-a-Dub Dub, there’s a Dachshund in the tub!

I’m no fool, I know the ladies like me smelling like sunshine! Now will someone please come turn the water on for me?

Please Help.

Are you going to make me have to give the crazy eyes?

Now I've had to revert to yelling!

Sigh. I guess I'll have to get my scrub on another day.

Off to find something stinky to roll in....just so someone HAS to give me a bath

Happy Howl-a-day!

Ok I know I’m about 3 months early for Christmas, but I can’t help it. The thought of presents under the tree are just sooo enticing!

This year I wanted to be extra prepared, so I made up a line of Christmas cards featuring me playing in the snow! Now you can send my cute mug all over the World – and we all know I’m all about World domination! Ammo for president! Woo hoo!

Anyway, here’s the new goods in my Etsy shop that I share with Painting Pony. Stock up early to avoid the Holiday rush!

Lazy Sunday

Posted on by

Every once in a while it’s pretty quiet around my house. “Lazy Sunday” is not usually a term that you hear when you live with me. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy basking in the sun as much as everyone else….but when there are adventures to be had, who has the time to sleep in?

In my dreams this is how I’m catered to everyday. Sunning every morning, accompanied by having your breakfast brought out to you. Don’t you wish everyday could be “Lazy Sunday”. Don’t worry….we’ll be back to our regular scheduled adventure postings soon. For now though, I’m off to enjoy my breakfast…..

oooh is breakfast ready?

I’ll have whatever your having

dang. just regular old kibble for me

Hiking, Biking, & Swimming

Posted on by

I’m a little behind on my adventures, I mean honestly, I have so many that sometimes I forget to write about them all on my blog! Crazy I know!

Well this adventure happened over Labor Day Weekend – almost 2 weeks ago! Gosh, I’m really behind. Anyway, my mom took me and Trooper (and my grandparents) to hike on a trail. Can you believe I’ve never been hiking! I guess my life has been so crazy busy that I forgot to ask my mom to take me.

Anyway, I had my first encounter with Bikes on the trail, and I even played fetch in the water with Trooper. I’m getting braver about swimming – pretty soon I’ll be swimming laps around the fishes. For now though, I’m taking it slow…..you know…..gotta work up to it. I’m only one! I’ve got plenty of time to learn!

Do you think someone will give me a ride? My little legs are tired

Me and Trooper smell dogs!

Shotgun

Sometimes when my mom’s truck is full to the brim with stuff I get to ride in the front seat. Oh glorious day, how sweet the front seat is! I get a window (that rolls down I might add), and I get to feel the wind in my face.

But….pretty soon my excitement fades, and I remember that car rides make me sleepy – and there seems to be no where to sleep in the front seat. I miss my fluffy car seat in the back….

Where I normally ride.

starting to wish I was back in my comfy car seat

Sewing – Doggie Style

Posted on by

Lately my mom has been doing this thing called sewing. As far as I can tell she uses this noisy machine that attaches together tempting chew toys fabric into something that may or may not be useful. My mom said I could probably do a better job at sewing than she could, so I jumped at the chance to help. Turns out I never made it past the picking fabric stage – I think all the bright colors just distracted me.

Oh well, sewing has proven to be a great opportunity for me to catch up on my napping. I’ve got my paws crossed that mom will make me something useful one of these days.

What we making today?

Choosing fabric

I like this one

Just making sure the color will match my room

Are we done sewing yet?

Collapsing from boredum

tada! Apparently it’s a grocery bag dispenser.

Bunting! Makes me want to throw a party and invite all my doggie friends!

Kung Fu Master

Posted on by

Yea, no biggie, I’ve just been training in my spare time to be a kung fu fighter. See according to mom and dad, these little flying menaces aren’t allowed in the house. So I’ve taken it upon myself to practice my high-flying fighting skills on them. Not trying to brag or anything, but I’ve caught a few. I expect to be getting my black belt pretty soon.

the trick is to time it just right….

…then snatch it out of the air!

mmmmm…tastes like chicken!

Love Letter

Posted on by

Dear Cricket,

There are lots of reasons why I love you.

#1. You’re not above rolling in a pile of horse poop so you can blend into your surroundings

#2. Playing chase with you is always a much welcome challenge, I only wish I could climb trees as well as you could

#3. Your hunting skills far surpass mine, at least I know you’ll always have dinner ready when I come home

#4. Sunbathing in the nude is a daily occurrence for you – I just wish you wouldn’t do it in public

#5. You can hold your own in a wrestling match, I admire that in a companion

#6. You once spent the night trapped underneath a bucket, I was impressed at how brave you were in the face of danger

#7. You also got trapped inside the trunk of a small car, and took a bumpy car ride before someone discovered you, come to think of it – your awareness of surroundings might not be too keen, but I love you anyway

#8. You had kittens with another (but I don’t hold that against you) – you have a wonderful mothering instinct

#9. You were once an orphan wandering the streets – it makes you appreciate home that much more

#10. I think if I got you a stunt helmet and cape you wouldn’t be above jumping through hoops with me

I don’t know how to count any higher, but you get the point. Looking forward to many happy years together.

Love,

Ammo
